Motor Tourists Will Break All Records One-Third Population Expected To Take the Road Motoring this year will bring out 44,000,000 tourists who will spend a total of $3,630,000,000 in the United States and Canada. This surprising tourist business is the prediction made by Frank E. Brimmer, canning authority, in the February issue of the American Motorist. Out of this vast total, Brimmer estimates hotels and tourists' homes will reap approximately $2,420,000,000, the remainder being left by campers. Due to the improved conditions for motoring and sight-seeing, Brimmer believes campers will spend about a month each on sight-seeing excursions. This prolonged vacation will bring into the coffers of cities and businesses an average of $3.30 a day for each individual—or a total of $1,210,000,000 for the touring season. Hotel vacationists—motorists only—will average about ten days for their stays, however, and will spend an average of $7.50 a day for each person. These totals are estimated on the basis of a 10 per cent increase over last year's figures. He puts the hotel tourist total for 1927 at 29,000,000, coming in 7,250,000 automobiles, an increase of 12 per cent over the previous season. Campers in both tents and cottages numbered 11,000,000 last year and took to the road in 2,750,000 automobiles, an increase of 10 per cent over 1926, says Brimmer. Of these, only three-fourths tented along the trails, or used house cars and camping trailers. The rest carried almost no camping outfits at all but put up at cottages. Of the 11,000,000 campers, it has been figured, 2,000,000 each were attracted to the national parks of the West, the Great Lakes regions and the Southwest. The Northwest took about 50,000 campers; the Mississippi valley and Gulf Coast, 250,000; the Southeast, 500,000; Deaf Man Injured When Hit by Auto Because he has only one pair of eyes, and no hearing, Judson J. Allen, Santa Ana canyon resident, was in an Anaheim hospital Monday, recovering from a broken leg, fractured rib, and bad shaking up suffered when he was hit by a car driven by J. R. Sheets of Los Angeles. Allen was crossing the highway on his way home, his attention held by a car approaching him on the left. Sheets, speeding along from the other direction, saw Allen and tooted his horn vigorously, but Allen, being deaf, didn't hear him, and too late looked toward the Sheets machine. The car struck him while traveling at a moderate rate of speed but, fortunately, passed over no vital spot. Sheets took the injured man to the hospital. Poultry Service Club Holds Meeting Friday The next meeting of the Poultry Service Club is to be held at the farm bureau office, Hall of Records, Santa Ana, 7:30 p.m., Friday. March 16.

The hotel tourist distribution, it is believed, followed the same proportions, although some states, like North Carolina, are particularly hotel tourist districts, where a greater ratio of such visitors would stay. While the East leans more to the hotel type of tourist, however, the Far West is more of a camper's paradise.

Anaheim Eucalyptus Water Co., By M. E. BEEBE, Secretary. 3-15-4t George F. Howard, northern Orange County Buick dealer, said that at the present time the factory is scheduled to make 18,000 carloads of automobiles a month, equal to 6000 carloads outbound or about 250 carloads of automobiles a day. In addition to this, there are about forty carloads of parts, scrap, motors, etc., so that nearly 300 carloads of freight leave the factory every working day. In times past a train load of Bulks created considerable attention and comment, but now five regular trains leave every night with full loads, and the performance is so regular that but little is known about it, or is the volume realized. Through freights, trains carrying nothing but Bulk cars, leave Flint every night for Chicago, Milwaukee, Buffalo, Toledo and Detroit. With the present high production maintained into the spring, there is every indication of this heavy freight traffic being continued.

Last year these crews personally visited and helped 65,000 fruit merchants. Through the advertising and other educational work of the Exchange, the annual consumption of oranges in America has been increased from approximately 3 dozen per person, in 1917, to approximately 5 dozen per person in 1927. All these services, and many others, the Exchange is performing for its members. They represent extra benefits not obtained through other selling agencies. If every citrus grower in California sold his fruit through the Exchange, even more could be accomplished. The problem of distribution would development of formets will play an interestful important part in Exchange operations. The United Kingdom and many countries of Continental Europe, across the Pacific and South America, carrying thousands of carloads of Sunkist fruits and Lemons, will remove that fruit the channels of domestic distribution. Thus environments of over-supply in America will be used and satisfactory market prices more maintained. growth in volume of Sunkist foreign sales matter of good luck.
